Your unpopular Pokémon opinions?

[floral smelt]

Charizard and Pikachu aren’t overrated
SWSH and SV were good
BDSP isn’t bad
Meganium is the worst starter
Terastallization is awful
Blaziken is overrated(not talking about PVP)
Johto has the worst Pokemon designs on average
Emboar and Delphox aren’t that bad design wise
Just a few

[arctic quest]

ultra beasts are overhyped

[floral smelt]

Agreed

[arctic quest]

people are probably gonna hate me but Kanto is insanely overrated

Its iconic yeah but like design-wise, probably one of the worst regions

[floral smelt]

That’s true

It’s still one of the most important regions though even if it’s not as well designed in the pokemon

I wouldn’t necessarily consider it bad that it’s designs are not as good

[arctic quest]

i wouldnt say its bad per se but its definitely overrated

[drifting tundra]

The Pokemon Anime sucks nowadays

The only good Pokemon anime series were the entire Diamond & Pearl series as well as the Entire XY series

Sun and Moon was decent but it didn’t have the same spark as XYZ

Journeys was a complete dumpster fire and had WAY too much wasted opportunities

And Horizons…..

I’m not a fan

[floral smelt]

What’s bad about horizons in your opinion

[drifting tundra]

The problem that I have with Horizons is that….

It just doesn’t hit the same for me

The characters are decent and well written but the story feels a bit bare bones

Like it’s lacking the substance needed to stand out more

[floral smelt]

I like horizons but I don’t really like Roy, liko’s story origin seems pretty generic, and I miss seeing trainers have teams of 6

[drifting tundra]

You just read my mind

I was thinking the same thing

Not just that

Most of the Pokemon aren’t even Evolved

Like it’s been who knows how many episodes and Hattrem, Crocalor and Quaxwell

STILL haven’t evolved 🤦‍♀️

[floral smelt]

It’s feeling like ash in black and white

[rocky zephyr]

Pokémon is better now than it’s ever been

[floral smelt]

I’m not sure when I would say Pokémon was at its best, but I wouldn’t consider it to be in decline at all right now

[arctic quest]

peak pokemon is xy/xyz and sun and moon

[floral smelt]

But peak Pokemon could be different depending on whether you’re going by the anime, the games, or something else

[arctic quest]

Okay peak anime is xy/xyz and sun and moon, and peak game imo is Legends Arceus

[floral smelt]

Tbh, I’ve never played any of the games until SWSH, I was playing the Roblox pokemon games when I was younger 💀

[arctic quest]

Reasonable those Roblox games were actually peak before sw/sh, s/v, let’s go, and legends arceus
